Orthotics & Custom Shoes

Long Island Comfort Shoes & Pedorthic Services is a fully accredited Pedorthic facility.

We offer a full service solution which includes casting molds for:

Orthotics (also called Orthoses) -

These are an important component of footwear.  They accommodate, support and/or relieve specific conditions, as well as improve the foot's function.  Below are just a few examples of custom orthotics.

         

In addition to designing and fabricating an appropriate orthotic, a C.Ped can offer you personalized attention in selecting, fitting and modifying shoes, so that you can wear your orthotic effectively.

Custom Molded Shoes (also called foot Orthoses) -                         

A C.Ped must take a cast of your feet for your custom molded shoes.  A positive mold of the foot can be made from a negative cast or computer generated, depending on the patient's needs and the prescriber's intent. 

Can a C.Ped Fill a Prescription - YES

Many people benefit from pedorthic devices or footwear modifications, which make your shoes or sneakers more comfortable.

Sometimes you might only need a shoe which has been properly fitted.  For situations such as these, you can see a C.Ped. without a footwear prescription. 

 

However, it is always adviseable to schedule an appointment with your C.Ped. for custom shoes. This will esure you are given the "time" and "attention" you deserve.
